Like a Flower and a Current of Air is a Multi media exhibition featuring several intimate paintings based on 35 mm photographs taken in the Iberian Peninsula. Through the act of painting Moya Ford retrieve's and invents information about the moment and mood captured in the image. Her video Recuerdos explores the way touching a photographic image triggers storytelling, and a slipperiness between memory and making. The artist will also present her new limited edition book Nine Postcards and a Love Letter, which features a selection of postcards paired with short writings about art historical and personal moments. The book was published as a risograph print by The Center for Imaginative Cartography and Research. Also included in the show is a series of ceramic vessels inspired by the folkloric ceramics of Spain, and made in collaboration with cermaic artist Lindsey Wohlgemuth.
